This blog will contain an assorted mixture of whatever that pours out of my mind and finds expression in words.. I love the beauty of words, I love my friends and above all I love the dark pearl of Dwaraka, the one and only Krishna

Brahmin power

Brahmin power is Brahmatejas, Brahmavarchas, and the stress is always on developing the mind.. and our ancestors had developed great powers and no weapons or spells could attack and vanquish such persons or try to take away their possessions without consent. This exactly happened to Visvamitra in his encounter with Vasishta where the former tried to take away holy cow nandini.. The avant gadre, after learning things through translations and secondary interpretations tend to find a via-media or hotchpotch of the apparently unsure brahma power and the immediately palpable kshatra or the brute physical power..A person can be a scholar in Vedas, he can be a Gandhian scholar and again he can study Marxism, Greek, Roman, Christian Islamic and all sorts of philosophies.. But creation of hybrids may be catchy, but can be really dangerous.. One who travels in the desert rides a camel and one who travels in the Pole rides a dog- ridden sledge.. If the vehicles do not match the terrain, or the camel is taken to the pole to draw the sledge and the dogs there in turn are taken to desert to negotiate the ocean of sand, the results can be disastrous.. First one should anchor his boat secure and stay in it, and then can contemplate analytically about other boats.. The moment he tries to set one foot each on two boats, the results can be known.. This is the tragedy visiting our community in general.. Let us develop strength of mind, hone our powers of will, let us be really oriented, and good results will follow naturally.. Paradigms and platitudes may not be of much help to one unless advertisement or public speaking is his career or job..
